WOW! I understand why the judges are having a hard time. My hat goes off to all the contestants.
Without knowing exactly what criterion was originally set for the contest and if true professionals were allowed to compete, I narrowed it to these four which any one I could see as the winner but if I had to choose:
4)
antiholic: Great work, detailed, professional but it’s too busy – an example of over doing it.
3)
alexnight: Most realistic; would like it reworded to “Wanna Lick?” to make it more playfully suggestive.
2)
aosora: Classic; reminds me of Kanoko in Velvet Kiss which got me to create an account in the first place.
1)
[color=red]annakarina[/color]: Of all the cute entries (Loken01, ollycescent, Rai Lu, Ammy) this the best.

aosora's work has a potential to become a hentai manga. The others' entries are well made, too, but my vote goes to annakarina because it is the closest one to the original concept art of Momoka that I have seen before. Also, that teasing partially exposed lingerie and facial expression really did the trick. The coloring is good, as well. I can bare to look at it for a long period of time unlike antiholic's entry.[/font][/color]
